0.05). The 1,3 and 5-year regional control and survival rates in both groups were concordant, demonstrating that the prognosis of these two groups was similar. The 5-year survival rate in pre-operative radiotherapy group was 37%. The results of retrospective analysis by Log-rank and Cox proportional regression methods demonstrated that whether the tumor resected or not were the major factors affecting pre-operative radiotherapy effect.

Local recurrences and distant metastases develop in patients with early stage NSCLC ( Non-small Cell Lung Cancer) after surgery. It becomes important to predict the prognosis and give postoperative adjuvant therapy if necessary. The advances of prognostic factors of early stage NSCLC are reviewed.

Objective To identify clinicopathologic factors which predict survival following hepatectomy in HBV-related cirrhotic patients with early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods A database was used to identify patients with histologically confirmed early HCC (≤5 cm,no nodal involvement,metastases,or major vascular invasion) who underwent surgical resection (excluding ablation or transplantation).Among 20 700 patients with HCC who were diagnosed at the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital from April 2005 to November 2010,537 (2.6％) patients with early HCC were studied retrospectively.Prognostic factors were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier curves,Cox proportional hazards models and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results The study included 537 patients.The median tumor size was 2.9 cm,and 33％ of patients had tumors ≤2 cm.Most HCC lesions were solitary (63％) and had no evidence of vascular invasion (64％).Following surgery,the overall median and 5-year survival were 45 months and 33％ respectively.After adjusting for demographic factors and histological grade,tumor size ＞2 cm (hazard ratio [HR]:1.56),multifocal tumors (HR:1.34),and vascular invasion (HR:2.03) remained independent predictors of poor survival (all P ＜ 0.05).Based on these findings,a prognostic scoring system was developed that allotted 1 point each for these factors.Patients with early HCC could be stratified into 4 distinct prognostic groups (median and 5-year survival,respectively):0 points (97 months,96％),1 point (85 months,76％),2 points (76 months,54％),3 points (56 months,39％) (P ＜0.01).Conclusions The present study emphasized the importance of pathologic staging even in patients with small HCC.Anatomical resection of HCC should be the preferred surgical procedure in cirrhotic patients.

Objective To investigate the appropriate cutoff point of CA19-9 in prognosis and to determine other potential prognostic factors which may affect survival of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) after radical surgery.Methods 168 patients who had undergone radical surgery for hilar cholangiocarcinoma with R0 and R1 resection were selected for the study.Categorized versions were used in univariate model to determine the appropriate cutoff point of CA19-9.CA19-9 and other clinicopathologic factors were analyzed for their influence on survival using multivariate methods.Results The strongest univariate predictor among the categorized preoperative CA19-9 measures was CA19-9 of less than 150 IU/L (P ＜0.001).On univariate analysis,age,differentiation,tumor size,Bismuth-Corlette classification,portal vein invasion,lymph node metastasis,hepatic artery invasion,liver invasion,preoperative biliary drainage,resection margin and preoperative CA19-9 levels were identified as significant prognostic factors.On multivariable analysis,lymph node metastasis,resection margin and preoperative CA19-9 levels were independent prognostic factors of survival.Conclusions A raised preoperative CA19-9 level was an independent prognostic factor of survival for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.The most discriminative cutoff point of CA19-9 for prognosis was at 150 kU/L.

Objective To study the disinfection efficacy of c ompound disinfectant of peracetic acid. Methods Suspended liqu id quantitative sterilization test and metal corrosion test were carried out wit h different concentrations of disinfectant compound. Results T he killing rate of Bacillus subtilis var.niger spores e xposed to peracetic acid 500 mg*L-1 or available chlorine 300 mg*L-1 for 15 minutes was 99.94% and 97.91% respectively, while that of the spores e xpos ed to the compound disinfectant containing both of them reached 100%. The influ ence of organic substances on the bactericidal efficacy of this compound disinfe ctant was less than that on the bactericidal efficacy of the single ingredient. The corrosive effect of the compound disinfectant on the metals was milder than that of peracetic acid, but heavier than that of dichlorodimethylhydantoin. Conclusions Disinfectant efficacy of compound disinfectant increase s clearly, while metal corrosiveness decreases.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of spontaneous rupture of BCLC stage A and stage B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),and to review the surgical outcomes.Methods From April 2002 to November 2006,89 patients who suffered from spontaneous rupture of HCC of BCLC stage A and stage B were included into this study.A control group of 171 patients was selected by matching the sex,age and BCLC stage.Clinical data and survivals were collected and analysed.Results On multivariate analysis,hypertension (HR 7.38,95％CI:1.91 ～28.58,P＜0.05),cirrhosis (HR6.04,95％ CI:2.83 ～12.88,P ＜ 0.05) and tumor location in segments Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅵ (HR 5.03,95％ CI:2.70 ～ 6.37,P ＜ 0.05) were predictive factors of spontaneous rupture of HCC.In the study group,the median survival and median disease-free survival were 12 months (range,1 ～ 78 months) and 4 months (range,0 ～ 78 months) respectively.The overall survival rates and disease-free survival rates at 1-,3-and 5-year were 66.3％,23.4％,10.1％ and 57.0％,16.8％,4.5％,respectively.Only radical resection remained predictive of overall survival (HR 0.32,95％ CI:0.08 ～ 0.61,P ＜ 0.05) and disease-free survival (HR 0.12,95％ CI:0.01 ～ 0.73,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Tumor location,as well as hypertension and cirrhosis were associated with spontaneous rupture of HCC.One-stage hepatic resection should be recommended to patients with ruptured HCC of BCLC stage A and stage B.

Objective To investigate the natural history and growth pattern of hepatic hemangioma in adults.Methods From April 2010 to March 2013, adult patients with hepatic hemangioma who had no prior treatment were enrolled.A routine follow-up was performed to observe the natural history and complications of these lesions.Results 236 patients were enrolled in the study.The median size of the hemangiomas was 4.5 cm (range 0.6 ～ 19.2 cm).During a median follow-up of 48 months (range 3 ～ 266 months), the hemangiomas increased in size in 61.0％ of patients, remained stable in size in 23.7％, decreased in size in 8.5％.The peak growth period was in patients ＜ 30 years age (0.46 ± 0.41 cm/year) and the growth rate decreased significantly after 50 years of age (0.21 ±0.40 cm/year).Hemangiomas with a size ＜2.0 cm had the lowest growth rate (0.16 ± 0.42 cm/year).The peak growth rate was in hemangiomas 8.0 ～ 10.0 cm (0.80 ± 0.62 cm/year) , but for hemangiomas ＞ 10.0 cm, the growth rate was only (0.47 ±0.91)cm per year.Only 9 patients had severe symptoms caused by the hemangioma.No patients presented with hemangioma-related complications.Conclusions The majority of hepatic hemangiomas have the tendency to increase in size but they rarely caused complications.All the hemangiomas could be safely managed by observation, and surgery should only be considered in patients with complications.

Objective To compare the efficacy of transrectal ultrasonography(TRUS)and spiral computed tomography(SCT)in preoperative staging of rectal carcinoma contrasted with the postoperative pathologic findings.Methods Both TRUS and SCT were performed prior to surgery in 92 patients with rectal carcinoma.After radical operation,the preoperative findings were compared with the histological findings,and the the efficacy of TRUS and SCT in staging the rectal carcinoma were evaluated.Results The accuracy of TRUS for T stage and N stage was 87.0% and 64.1% respectively,while the accuracy of SCT was 68.5% and 66.3%.Conclusions TRUS is superior to SCT for the judgment of tumor infiltration depth,TRUS may become the first choice in preoperative staging of rectal carcinoma.But neither is able to provide satisfaction assessment for lymph node metastases.When both methods are used together,it would be better.

Aim To establish depression rat model with kidney-yang deficiency and evaluate the related parameters.Methods A total of 24 adult SD rats were divided into control group,mod-el group and self-healing group by body weight.Model group and self-healing group were injected hydrocortisone for 21 days, meanwhile the control group was injected sodium chloride.After modeling,the related indexs detection were taken out:open-field test,sucrose preference test and forced swim test.Then the orbital blood was taken to detect 5-HT,DA and NE by LC-MS/MS.And liver,kidney,spleen,thymus,adrenal gland,testis and epididymis were taken to calculate organ index.Results Compared with the control group,model rats displayed depres-sion and kidney yang deficiency syndrome such as dry hairs, chills,back arched and so on. Correspondingly, the body weight increased slowly.Immobility in FST was significantly in-creased. Sucrose preference, horizontal scores and vertical scores was significantly decreased.Organ index decreased in liv-er,kidney,spleen,adrenal,testis and epididymis.The level of 5-HT and NE was significantly high.Compared with the model group,5-HT,NE and DA were significantly reduced,5-HT and DA were even lower than those of the control group.Conclusion Depression rat model with kidney-yang deficiency could be in-duced by continuous injection of hydrocortisone.
